NETWORK NODE AND METHOD PERFORMED THEREIN FOR HANDLING COMMUNICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17915008 titled 'NETWORK NODE AND METHOD PERFORMED THEREIN FOR HANDLING COMMUNICATION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method performed by a network node in a communication network for handling a received signal. The network node distributes the inputs of the signal to different processing cores and decodes them using message passing between the cores over a bus.

  • The method involves distributing inputs of a demodulated signal to different processing cores.
  • The demodulated signal is decoded by performing message passing within each processing core.
  • The demodulated signal is further decoded by performing message passing between different processing cores over a bus.
  • The message passing between processing cores is performed according to a set schedule.

Potential Applications

  • This method can be applied in various communication networks, such as wireless networks or wired networks.
  • It can be used in systems that require efficient signal processing and decoding, such as telecommunications or data transmission networks.

Problems Solved

  • The method solves the problem of efficiently handling and decoding a received signal in a communication network.
  • By distributing the inputs of the signal to different processing cores and using message passing, the method improves the overall processing speed and efficiency.

Benefits

  • The method allows for parallel processing of the received signal, which increases the overall decoding speed.
  • By distributing the inputs to different processing cores, the method reduces the load on each core, leading to improved performance and reduced processing time.
  • The use of message passing between processing cores ensures efficient communication and coordination between them, resulting in optimized decoding of the signal.


Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments herein relate to a method performed by a network node for handling a received signal in a communication network. The network node distributes a first number of inputs of a demodulated signal to a first processing core of at least two processing cores and a second number of inputs of the demodulated signal to a second processing core of the at least two processing cores. The network node further decodes the first number of inputs of the demodulated signal by a first message passing within the first processing core, and decodes the second number of inputs of the demodulated signal by a second message passing within the second processing core. The network node further decodes the demodulated signal by performing a third message passing between the different processing cores over a bus that is performed according to a set schedule.
